Digitizing the Art: Learning the Tools
I had a severe urge to draw the other day. So I got out the oil paintsticks and a large piece of paper. When I was done the proportions were off, so I decided to move over to a digital format. After taking a photo of the drawing, I uploaded the image to my iPad Pro and continued working on the piece with the drawing tools in Procreate. With sketch, drawing and paint strokes tools, I was able to maintain a lot of the original hand-drawn appearance.
Of course, I couldn’t stop there. Later, I pushed the original digital image in different directions in an effort to continue learning the Procreate tools. It is actually a lot of fun. There is a lot to learn. The results are below.
Original artwork can be found in the galleries and, of course, in the shop.
